Clear language, organized by category.

Focused impact play using a riding crop or a purpose-built equivalent, typically for sensation, rhythm, or consensual power exchange.

Advanced impact play using a whip, typically for consensual sensation, sound, and scene dynamics; it requires substantial skill, distance control, and careful target selection.

Negotiated grappling, resistance, pinning, or strength play between consenting adults.

Two or more consenting adults touch themselves, often while watching, talking, or sharing space with one another. The focus is on shared self-pleasure rather than partner-to-partner genital contact.

Consensual vaginal penetration using a body part or body-safe toy, with clear communication about comfort, lubrication, depth, pace, and STI/pregnancy risk reduction.

Erotic rubbing or grinding, usually pelvis-to-pelvis or against another body part, done with negotiated consent and sometimes with clothes on.

A form of advanced vaginal penetration in which a hand is inserted gradually and only with clear, ongoing consent, generous lubrication, and attentive pacing.

Gradual anal penetration with a hand; an advanced activity requiring extensive preparation, explicit consent, and strong risk awareness.

Consensual sexual or erotic activity among three adults, with clear agreements about what is and isn’t on the table for everyone involved.

Consensual sexual or erotic activity involving more than two adults.

An erotic or sensory interest in balloons, inflation, or the visual and tactile feeling of stretch, fullness, tension, and anticipation. For some adults, the appeal is the object itself; for others, it’s the act of inflation or the playful suspense around it.

An advanced edge-play practice involving temporary skin piercing with sterile, single-use needles as part of a negotiated BDSM scene between consenting adults.

Consensual adult kink involving the sight, suggestion, or controlled presence of blood. It is an advanced-risk practice because it can expose people to infection, injury, and emotional fallout, and it requires explicit informed consent from all participants.

Advanced sensation play that brings flame, heat, or fire-adjacent equipment near the body for erotic or aesthetic effect. It carries serious burn, smoke, and ignition risks and is generally considered edge play.

Negotiated impact play focused on the external genital area. Because this area is highly sensitive and richly vascularized, it carries an elevated risk of pain, swelling, bruising, nerve injury, and other complications.

An advanced adult activity involving insertion of a smooth, purpose-built instrument into the urethra. It carries significant risks of pain, infection, and tissue injury.

Consensual use of enemas in an adult kink or sexual context, for preparation, sensation, ritual, hygiene preference, or roleplay, with attention to fluid balance, irritation, and rectal injury risk.

Consensual adult play involving urine, with clearly negotiated hygiene, exposure, and cleanup boundaries.

A pre-negotiated fantasy scenario in which consenting adults act out capture, kidnapping, or forced-confinement themes in a clearly consensual, off-stage-safe way.
